Not good with rumps

I bought a rump roast yesterday with the intent of making it today. Only I didn't realize how long it would take to cook (~ 2 hrs), so I ended up having to make something else quick for the girls for dinner. So while they were doing homework and practicing piano and taking baths, the roast was cooking away with an uncertain future. I was worried because the girls go to their mother's Thursday through Saturday, so it was going to be me and the roast for a few days.

It worked out not so bad, after all. I asked the girls close to bed time if they felt like having some of the roast since it was done and they were eager to try some. So there we were, the three of us having roast at 8:45. But quite a bit of it got eaten surprisingly. Shelby and I each had three helpings and Darby had two. Now at least I have a manageable amount of leftovers, instead of practically a whole roast.
